Description

In 1927 the Finnish Army adopted the M27 which was an entirely new design built on the Mosin action. It features a 27” heavy barrel and an overall length of 46 ¾”. Primary differences are an improved front sight with protective “ears” and a combined front barrel band and nose cap. M27s were built from 1927 to 1940 by Tikkakoski and in 1932 and 1935 at VKT (Valtion Kirvaaritehdas).

This one is a uncommon/rare rifle that has not been updated and still in its first early year Pattern. Its a 1928 Tika barrel with winged bolt.

I've never seen an up-close shot of a Finnish Nagant before. Cool
